Figure 2. Balanced geologic-geophysical section through the upper crust of the Northwest Caucasus along the line Bezeps-Inal Cove (constructed by N. I. Ovsyuchenko, E. A. Rogozhin, and E. A. Ushanova using data from Shempelev et al. [[2001]).
1 - Mesozoic terrigenous sequences; 2 - Mesozoic carbonate sequences; 3-5 - faults: 3 - reverse fault and thrust, 4 - transtensional strike slip fault, 5 - other; 6 - transitional (Upper Paleozoic) complex between cover and basement; 7-9 - pre-Mesozoic basement of folded system: 7 - North Caucasus marginal massif, 8 - plastic, of the Dizsky type, 9 - Transcaucasian (Dzirulsky) type; 10 - location of active neotectonic faults (after [Nesmeyanov, 1992]) and their tag number; 11 - age abbreviation; 12 - surface expression of the Main Caucasus thrust.
